Device Type change

Hi is there any way to change the device type as I have several shelly relays that I use to control lights but in the Homey app I can’t change them lights.is there any way to change this in the app so they appear as lights.

Hi Eddie,

@ phone app, longpress device tile, and when you’re lucky:

Thanks Peter worked a treat

I got a Shelly 0-10V Dimmer controlling ventilation. Its also seen as a “light”, and there is no such options. How do i change a dimmer to something other than lights?

Have a look at the Advanced Setting of the device.

I have the same issue. Cant find a place to change it.


I also own Shelly 0-10V dimmers, and they’re indeed “hardcoded” as lights.

Only the Shelly app developer can add “what’s plugged in” functionality, if possible at all.

Hoi Peter, did you find any solution for this issue in the meantime?

I’m in the same boat with this dimmer, which not used for light but for powering our heatpump.

Strange, since the best practices guide for app developers specifically mentions that 0-10V dimmers must be “socket” device class (so that you can select what’s plugged in) rather than light.

You should contact the Shelly app developer
